ABOUT

DEV Korea is a global investor and accelerator that focuses on Korean companies building transformative digital and mobile products. Its aim is to sharpen the competitiveness of Korea’s start-up ecosystem by investing in early stage companies and positioning them to expand globally. Korea has the unique advantage of a world-class broadband network, leading smartphone penetration, a highly educated workforce and enthusiastic government support for start-ups. Equipping Korean ventures with the tools for international competitiveness is key to capitalizing on these advantages and spawning a new generation of top tier global businesses. DEV Korea is the first in the nation to establish a sophisticated platform based in Seoul and New York to achieve this goal.

The DEV Korea team includes serial entrepreneurs with decades of experience, a world-class cross-border lawyer, and MIT and Cornell educated staff. With the support of our network of mentors in New York and Seoul, we provide a one-stop solution for start-ups seeking overseas expansion, including legal, investment and business strategy.
